Check out how hard the DS monorail leaves the line with it's major diet: DS Monorail

also see forum thread

 

It dont work. I did check out the pics on the thread.. Looks different and light.

 

The vid worked for me. Pretty cool!

 

Just so everyone is up to speed. That video is of the prototype built for Klug Racing in Salem. That is Josh Klug (the guy that did my build) piloting the DS. They are racing a 4mil stroker Banshee with a stock bore, stock stroke DS motor in the monorail frame. That exact frame ended up on the TVI Monorail and now the Klug Racing DS has a new Monorail frame on it.

If you have ever been to South Jetty Hill at Florence, OR (that is where this video took place) you will know how huge the whoops are and how impressive this chassis is on uneven ground. I have more motor but this setup outruns me mostly because they jump out 2 bike lengths right off the line and I can't reel them in.

does anyone now how much one ofhis mono's run in price?

 

As of right now, due to the negative publicity the monorail has been getting, Dave told us he wasen't sure he would make any more of them. It wouldn't surprise me though if a few people called him that were interested in going this route, he might change his mind. This is the only way I know of to get a DS into the mid 300's and still be made for duning. Look at this frame as a duning frame and by the way it also has a 150 lb weight advantage that will really help at the hill.

That is how Dave intended for this thing to be perceived. Not as strictly a race chassis.

You can get his number off his website.
